Two tries by wing JP Pietersen gave the Durban Sharks a 17-3 victory over the Bulls of Pretoria in an error-strewn Super 14 match on Saturday.
Pietersen scored once in each half in a game dominated by good defence and indifferent attack.
The Sharks led 7-3 at halftime and the issue stayed in the balance until Pietersen wrapped up the match with five minutes remaining.
He finished off a 50m backline move, curving in from 15m to score behind the posts. Percy Montgomery, who earlier kicked a penalty, converted to complete the victory. – Reuters
